Gympie Custom Home Builder
Bring your building dreams to life and start living your best life.
Designed and built for the Gympie lifestyle.
The trusted home builder Gympie families rely on.
The Shed House is the leading home builder serving Gympie and the surrounding region. Whether you're bringing your own plans or starting from a blank canvas, we work with you to design a home that matches your vision — and your block.
We understand this is one of the largest investments you'll make. That's why we keep communication honest and upfront from the first conversation to the final handover.
We build on almost any site — rural acreage, sloping hinterland blocks, narrow lots, and everything in between. Our team specialises in custom engineering solutions that handle the site conditions volume builders walk away from. We also provide a thorough selections process, so you know exactly what's going into your home before a single nail is driven.

Why Gympie homeowners choose The Shed House
Gympie's rural and hinterland character — large acreage blocks, timber country terrain, and sloping sites across the Mary Valley and surrounds — combined with Gympie Regional Council's planning requirements means local building knowledge is essential.
Sloping block specialists
Our suspended floor system is designed for the hinterland. We build on sites that others won't.
Gympie Council knowledge
Local planning rules, setback requirements, and overlay maps are not new territory for our team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — we can accommodate your own architectural plans and build to your brief. Alternatively, we can start from scratch with our in-house design team. Either way, the process begins with a preliminary consultation to assess your Gympie block and confirm what's achievable within the council's planning framework. Get in touch to start the conversation.
We build across a wide range — from compact secondary dwellings and granny flats to full family homes, rural lifestyle properties, and split-level designs on sloping acreage sites. Our steel-framed designs can be adapted for any of these use cases. View our completed projects for examples of what we've delivered across the Gympie region.
Yes — this is one of our specialities. Our suspended steel floor system is specifically engineered for sloping terrain, avoiding the costly cut-and-fill earthworks that a conventional slab would require on Gympie's hinterland and rural sites. Read more on our Gympie sloping block page.
Before any work begins, we provide a detailed fixed-price contract based on your agreed design, selections, and site conditions. This means no unexpected costs during the build — what you sign is what you pay. We discuss any site-specific factors (such as slope, soil conditions, or council overlays) that affect pricing upfront, so there are no surprises. All Gympie custom home builds are founded on a Master Builders Queensland contract.
Yes. All new dwellings in the Gympie region require a Building Approval (BA) from a licensed private building certifier, and depending on your zoning and the nature of the build, a Development Application (DA) from Gympie Regional Council may also be required. Rural and rural residential zones across the Gympie region can have specific overlays — bushfire, flood, or vegetation — that trigger additional assessment requirements depending on your block. We manage the full approvals process as part of our Turnkey builds.
Timelines depend on the complexity of the design, the approvals process, and site conditions. A Turnkey custom build typically moves from contract signing to handover in several months, with approval timeframes varying based on your zoning and Gympie Regional Council requirements. We'll give you a realistic timeline at the quoting stage. Our preliminary agreement process establishes this before you commit.
We build throughout the Gympie region — including Gympie, Imbil, Tin Can Bay, Cooloola Cove, Rainbow Beach, the Mary Valley, and surrounding rural and acreage areas. Contact us to confirm whether your block is within our service area.
